Women’s Urological Health Conditions
While most people think of men and men's health clinics when they think of urologists, women also have urological health concerns. We treat a number of urological conditions for women including:
Pelvic Organ Prolapse - This condition affects the female body, often occurring after childbirth or due to natural aging. Pelvic organ prolapse, or POP, happens when the pelvic muscles weaken, leading to a feeling of pressure in the lower abdomen or vagina. In some cases, this can cause discomfort or pain ranging from mild to severe. Fortunately, there are several treatment options available, including uterine prolapse surgery, posterior prolapse surgery, and anterior prolapse surgery.
Recurrent UTIs - The condition that affects many women and occurs when urinary tract infections (UTIs) repeatedly return is known as recurrent UTIs. These infections can be caused by bacteria entering the urinary tract, hormonal changes, or other underlying health conditions. When women experience this condition, they may feel a frequent urge to urinate, burning sensations, or pelvic discomfort. This can sometimes lead to mild or severe pain. Fortunately, there are many treatments available, including antibiotics, lifestyle changes, and preventive therapies to help reduce the risk of future infections.

Men’s Urological
Health Conditions
There are quite a few urological issues that men have, and we treat many of them at Advanced Urology, including:
- Prostate Cancer - Approximately 11.2% of men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer during their lifetime, making it one of the most common cancers among men. It also has the third highest mortality rate among cancer-related deaths. Risk factors include age, genetics, and lifestyle, with African American men, those over 50, and individuals with a family history of the disease facing a higher likelihood of diagnosis. Diets high in red meat and certain gene mutations may also increase risk. While prostate cancer can be serious, early detection through routine screenings significantly improves treatment outcomes.
- Testicular Cancer - Affecting about 1 in 250 men at some point in their lives, testicular cancer is one of the most treatable forms of cancer. Though it is most commonly diagnosed in younger men, particularly those between the ages of 15 and 35, it can occur at any age. Risk factors include a family history of testicular cancer, an undescended testicle, or abnormal testicular development. Fortunately, the survival rate is high, with only 1 in 5,000 men succumbing to the disease. Regular self-exams and early detection are key to successful treatment.

Other Urological
Health Conditions
- Urological cancer - Like any form of cancer, if you suspect you have any of the urological cancers, it's important that you see your physician as soon as possible. The sooner it's caught—whether it's bladder cancer, prostate cancer, kidney cancer or testicular cancer—the better the chances of beating it. While both men and women are affected by urological cancer, men have an increased risk.
- Urinary and bladder issues - Although women are at a greater risk of developing urinary and bladder conditions, men also can develop them. If you're experiencing any of the symptoms of painful urination, frequent urination, nocturia, pelvic pain or pain during sexual intercourse, it's imperative that you see your urologist right away.
